LOST PAY CHECK POLICY

ALL employees are strongly encouraged to participate in the Direct Deposit Program.

In the event you are not a current participant in the Direct Deposit Program and your check is lost (by you or lost in the mail), please contact payroll immediately.

Pay Checks Picked Up By Employee

Pay checks that were distributed to you but were later lost will be pay stopped immediately by the Payroll Services Department. A Stop Payment Request is then issued by our bank on the lost check. After the Payroll Department receives the official Stop Payment Notice from our bank, your check will be re-issued to you in the form of an Accounts Payable check. You will then be notified by the Payroll Department either by e-mail or phone that your replacement check is ready for pick-up. THIS ENTIRE PROCESS TAKES APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS TO COMPLETE.

Pay Checks Mailed To Your Home Address

Pay checks are held by the Bursar Offices for 15 business days only. After fifteen days, pay checks are mailed to your home address. If your home address changed, please remember to log on to WEB FOR EMPLOYEES and make the change.

If you contact the Bursar Office and are told your check was mailed and 5 days have lapsed since the date you are given by the Bursar as the check mailing date contact Payroll. Please allow at least 5 business days between the check mailing date and the date you notify Payroll of the un-received pay check. A Stop Payment Request will be sent to the bank. Once the Stop Payment Notice is received from the bank, your check will be re-issued to you as stated above. Again, this process takes about two weeks for completion.
